Cnet cn40bc Guia De Informação

Drivers are the software that makes the operating system to communicate with the 
hardware.  For example, to install a network card in any system,  one needs the drivers 
that are specifically written for that operating system.  

 

 
TCP/IP, which stands for Transport Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.

IP addresses are addresses that identify each node on the Internet.  These addresses are 
either assigned by a network administrator or received from a DHCP server.  Each IP 
address is comprised of 4 octets or 32 bits (IPv4).  

Class A IP addresses are IP addresses which the first octet is the Net ID and the 
remaining 24 bits identify the Host ID.  In class A IPs the first octet is from 1 to 126.  IN 
class B IPs, the first two octets define the Net ID and the remaining 16 bits are for host 
identification.  These addresses start from 128 to 191.  Class C addresses use the first 
three octets foe Net ID and the last 8 bits are for host identification. This range of IPs 
start from 192 to 223.

Yes.  The drivers for winXP are included in the operating system. 
 

-  First thing is to identify the Operating Sytem that you are running on each system. 
-  Second is to acquire a network adapter that is supported in that operating system 

or in other words, the manufacturer has drivers for it in that OS. 

-  Third is to install the network cards on each system. 
-  Forth is to decide on whether using a direct cable between the two systems or 

using a hub/switch.  If the two systems are connected directly, a crossover cable 
must be used.  When connecting to a hub or switch, a straight through cable is 
needed.
